PREFACE. 



About four years ago a movement was inaugurated looking to 
the publication at some time in the not distant future of a more 
complete history of the Schwenkfelders than has yet appeared, 
and a committee charged with the collection of material for such 
work was appointed at the Annual Conference of the Society in 
October, 1875. The labors of that committee naturally turned 
the attention of their constituents to the subject of genealogy, 
and excited a very general desire for the compilation from the 
many existing manuscripts of a complete genealogy of the de- 
scendants of the immigrant Schwenkfelders. By common con- 
sent the superintendence of such compilation was devolved upon 
the undersigned, who engaged the services of Rev. Reuben Krie- 
bel to collect and transcribe the several records in a form suitable 
for printing. The present volume is the result of their labors. 

The Rev. Balthasar Heebner, who died at an advanced age 
in 1848, had prepared and kept a record of marriages, births, 
and deaths of those who belonged to the Society of Schwenk- 
felders (of which he was a minister) to within a few years 
of his death. This record was the most complete one extant, 
yet in many instances omissions occurred, which had to be sup- 
plied, partially from other manuscripts, and from other records, 
kept in family Bibles, etc. As Mr. Heebner kept no record of 
those who did not adhere to the Society, other means had to 
be resorted to for the necessary information. This involved 
considerable labor, and the compiler opened a correspondence 
with all from whom he could obtain any knowledge. 

This correspondence extended nearly into every State of the 
Union. In most cases he was quite successful, yet in a few he 
failed to get the desired information for his purpose. This

was owing to the utter indifference of some few to give their 
family records, and several families could not be found; yet in 
the whole he flatters himself that his efforts have been very 
successful, and must be very gratifying to the numerous de- 
scendants of those early pioneers who braved the toils and 
vicissitudes of the earlier settlers' life. 

The record from 1846 has been supplied by the personal 
visits of the compiler to the descendants living in the region 
of country where their forefathers originally settled, and he ob- 
tained his information from authentic sources. The lists of 
male and female emigrants are from the original papers on file 
in the office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth at Har- 
risburg. An appendix explaining in some cases the relation- 
ship of the early immigrants, etc., is added at the end of the 
Record, to which the reader's attention is directed. 

The historical sketch prepared by C. Heydrick, Esq., of 
Franklin, Pa., gives a faithful account of Caspar Schwenkfeld 
and his followers, and forms a very important part of the work. 
It is not, however, intended to take the place of the more elabo- 
rate work originally contemplated, the preparation of which, it 
is hoped, will, in some measure, be aided by our labors. 

Those interested in getting up this work, indulge the hope 
that no one of the descendants will be so critical as to charge 
them with any dereliction of duty in not making it quite free 
from errors, for they issue it from the press with some diffi- 
dence, and hope that the errors may not be many.

THE SCHWENKFELDERS. 

AN HISTORICAL SKETCH. 



BY C. HEYDRICK. 



The Schwenkfelders were so called from Caspar Schwenk- 
feld, a Silesian nobleman. He was born at Ossing (now Ossig), 
in Liibner circle, in the Principality of Liegnitz, in Lower Sile- 
sia, in 1490, was educated at Cologne, and dwelt several years 
at other universities, where theology early attracted his atten- 
tion, and the writings of the Church Fathers became his favorite 
study. Quitting university life he visited many German courts, 
and devoted some years to the culture which, in his time, was 
supposed to befit his rank, qualifying himself for knighthood, 
and becoming, as he says in one of his epistles, a courtier. 
While yet a young man he entered the service of Carl, Duke of 
Miinsterberg, a grandson of Podiebrad, the Hussite King of 
Bohemia, at whose court the doctrines of John Huss were 
received, and by none more heartily than by the young knight 
and courtier. They made a deep and lasting impression 
upon his mind, and doubtless gave direction to his future life 
and labors. Bodily infirmities soon unfitted him for knightly 
duties, and he quitted the service of the Duke of Miinsterberg 
and became Counsellor to Frederick II., Duke of Liegnitz, whom 
he served in that capacity a number of years. Theology, 
however, had stronger attractions for him than affairs of state. 



VI THE SCHWENKFELDERS. 

He made the acquaintance of many theologians who were drift- 
ing in the direction of the Reformation, among whom were 
Valentine Crautwald, Johann Sigismund Werner, and Fabian 
Eckel, and under the influence of such associations the impres- 
sions received at Miinsterberg deepened until, as he expressed 
it, God touched his heart, and he withdrew from the ducal 
court and was chosen Canon of St. John's Church in Liegnitz. 
Luther had now withdrawn from the Church of Rome, and 
his preaching attracted Schwenkfeld's attention and inspired 
him with a more intense zeal for the service of the Divine 
Master. He was at one with Luther upon the issues which 
the latter had raised with the Roman Catholic Church, and 
could no longer hold his position in St. John's Church with- 
out violence to his conscience. He therefore renounced it to 
become an evangelist, and, for thirty-six years, with voice and 
pen, exhort men to repentance and godliness. 

Although not by nature a controversialist, as his writings 
abundantly testify, Schwenkfeld soon came to differ with the 
great Reformer on several points, chief among which related to 
the Eucharist, to the efficacy of the Divine Word, to the human 
nature of Christ, and to baptism. Schwenkfeld rejected the doc- 
trine of impanation or consubstantiation as well as that of tran- 
substantiation, and held that Christ taught (Matt. xxvi. 26) that 
" such as this broken bread is to the body, so is my body to the 
soul, a true and real food, which nourishes, sanctifies, and delights 
the soul ; and such as this wine is to the body, so, in its effects, is 
my blood to the soul, which it strengthens and refreshes ; " 
and, as a corollary, that the impenitent, though he would eat of 
the bread of the Lord, could not eat the body of the Lord, but 
that the penitent believer did partake of both, not only at the 
sacramental altar, but elsewhere. 

In respect to the second point of difference, he denied that 
the external word, which is committed to writing in the Scrip- 



HISTORICAL SKETCH. Vll 

tures, was endowed with the power of healing, illuminating, 
and renewing the mind, but ascribed this power to the Internal 
or Eternal Word, i.e., Christ himself. (John i. 1-14; Rev. xix. 
13.) He regretted that Luther, who at first was quite in accord 
with him, should see fit afterwards to ascribe to the written, 
outward, or preached word that power and efficacy which is 
inherent only in Christ, the Eternal Word. Luther translated 
Romans x. 17 : "So kommt der Glaube aus der Predigt, das 
Predigen aber durch das Wort Gottes " — So faith cometh by 
preaching, but preaching by the word of God ; while Schwenk- 
feld followed the original closely, rendering it in the equivalent 
of the English translation : So then faith cometh by hearing, 
and hearing by the word of God. 

Upon the third point of difference Schwenkfeld would not 
allow Christ's human nature in its exalted state to be called a 
creature or created substance, holding that such denomination 
was " infinitely below His majestic dignity, reunited, as it is in 
that glorious state, with the Divine Essence." He also rejected 
infant baptism, holding that instruction and faith should pre- 
cede baptism (Acts viii. 12, 13; Mark xvi. 15, 16; Matt, xxviii. 
19 ); and that the Sacraments of Baptism and the Lord's Supper 
were not intended as " a channel and means " through which 
the unregenerated participant could obtain salvation. 

Having settled in his own mind the true meaning of the 
words uttered by our Lord at the institution of the sacramen- 
tal feast, Schwenkfeld wrote out his views and submitted 
them to his friend Crautwald, who at first rejected them, and 
reproved him sharply for what he esteemed his heresy. 
Schwenkfeld, however, besought him to pray over the matter, 
and examine the words of the institution closely in the original 
tongue, declaring his conviction, in harmony with his theory 
of the operation of the Divine Word, that Christ had revealed 
the meaning to him. Crautwald finally promised to pray and 



Vlll THE SCHWENKFELDERS. 

think over the matter, and the result was his conversion. 
Speaking of this conference in one of his letters, Schwenkfeld 
says : " A fortnight later he (Crautwald) wrote me a Latin let- 
ter that the Lord Christ had revealed to him also the true 
meaning of the words." 

Earnestly desiring harmony rather than polemic discussion, 
and hoping that an interchange of opinions would lead to an 
agreement with Luther, Schwenkfeld determined to seek a per- 
sonal interview with him, and accordingly, in September, 1525, 
visited him at Wittenberg, and laid before him his views to- 
gether with Crautwald's letter. Bugenhagen, Pomeranus, and 
Justus Jonas were present, and the conference, which continued 
several days, was marked by Christian courtesy. Luther was 
in a condescending mood and said to Schwenkfeld : " I say 
truly that I have been troubled with this doctrinal point for 
three years. Now your opinion is acceptable to me ; it is 
very good if you can prove it. Finally, I say that your doctri- 
nal point is not objectionable to me if you can prove it. I, 
also, was strongly inclined to it, and have long striven against 
it, and still have to strive against it." 

Schwenkfeld's mission seemed to have been successful, at 
least so far as to justify the belief that his views would receive 
respectful consideration, and he parted from the reformers in 
friendship, and, we may well suppose, returned to his own coun- 
try with a light heart. But he was doomed to disappointment. 
After two months Luther returned his manuscript and Craut- 
wald's letter, and wrote him in his characteristic style, that he 
and Crautwald must cease to lead the people astray ; that the 
blood of those whom they led astray would be upon their 
heads, and closed with these words : " Kurtzum, entwieder ihr 
oder wir miissen des Teufels leibeigen seyn, weil wir uns beider- 
seits Gottes Word ruhmen" — In short, either you or we must

be in the bond service of the devil, because we, on both sides, 
appeal to the word of God. 

Troubles now began to thicken. Cut off from fellowship 
with the Lutherans, Schwenkfeld was none the less an object 
of the hatred of the Catholics. Even Ferdinand, King of Bo- 
hemia and Hungary, afterwards Emperor of Germany, whose 
liberality to the Protestants brought him into such disfavor at 
Rome that Pope Paul IV. refused to ratify his elevation to the 
imperial dignity, could not tolerate his teachings in respect to 
the Sacraments of the Lord's Supper and Baptism, misrepre- 
sented as they were by the Catholic clergy, and wrote to the 
Duke of Liegnitz to proceed to extreme measures for his re- 
pression — Silesia then being under the suzerainty of the Bo- 
hemian kings. But the Duke was so far in sympathy with 
Schwenkfeld that he had printed for the use of his own house- 
hold a " Confession of Faith " drawn up by two of the latter's co- 
workers and most intimate friends, — Eckel and Werner, — and 
embodying the very doctrines which were so distasteful to the 
King's spiritual advisers. Moreover, a friendship, formed while 
Schwenkfeld was Counsellor to the Duke and never afterwards 
interrupted, forbade compliance with the King's command. 
But the Duke was powerless to protect his friend, and therefore 
advised him to retire from Silesia until more tolerant counsels 
should prevail at the royal court. He accordingly left Silesia 
in 1529 for a journey through Germany, but, as the sequel 
proved, never to return to his native land, — a circumstance 
which gave occasion for the story circulated by his enemies at 
the time, and since repeated by some German writers, that he 
had been expelled by the Duke at the instance of Ferdinand, 
a story that Schwenkfeld expressly refuted on several occa- 
sions, and which is disproved by his friendly correspondence 
with the Duke until the latter's death. Thenceforth he had no 
settled abiding-place, but moved about from city to city, de-

fending his doctrines and faith in public conferences and dis- 
cussions with the learned, and before the Magistrates at Augs- 
burg, Niirnberg, Strasburg, Tubingen, and Ulm ; often perse- 
cuted, and at least once — at Tubingen in 1535 — tried for heresy, 
when he was so far acquitted as to be promised freedom of 
religious worship in private, though forbidden to speak pub- 
licly. 

His life was one of unremitting labor. Besides preaching, 
he maintained an extensive correspondence with learned men 
and others of high rank throughout Germany and in Switzerland, 
and wrote many books and pamphlets, several editions of which 
were published — one in 1592, in four large quarto volumes. 
A spirit of deep and fervent piety pervaded his writings ; and, 
although when controversy was forced upon him he stoutly 
defended his opinions upon disputed points of doctrine, he held 
that repentance of sin, purity of life, and humble trust in the 
cleansing efficacy of the blood of Christ were of infinitely more 
importance than subscription to dogmas and observance of the 
Sacraments. Hence he desired not to establish an independent 
church, but frequently declared, in his writings, his unwilling- 
ness to separate himself from any who loved Christ. Notwith- 
standing the irreconcilable differences between himself and 
Luther, and the harsh treatment which he had received from 
the latter after the Wittenberg conference, he never ceased to 
frankly acknowledge his obligations and express in the warmest 
terms his gratitude to the great reformer for the services he had 
rendered to him in common with all who were seeking the 
truth ; and as late as 1543, less than three years before Luther's 
death, wrote him, earnestly and affectionately entreating him to 
examine his " Confession of Faith Concerning the Person of 
Christ," a work then just published, and point out his errors, if 
any. He died at the city of Ulm on the 10th of December, 1 562, 
leaving a name unspotted by any charge except that of heresy, 



HISTORICAL SKETCH. XI 

and that only in respect to the doctrines herein mentioned, and 
others held in common by the reformers. His opponents ac- 
corded him the praise of possessing great learning combined 
with modesty, meekness, piety, and a loving spirit. 

Although the establishment of an independent church was a 
purpose never entertained by Schwenkfeld, he had, so far as 
successful teaching of his distinctive doctrines went, prepared 
the way for it. Many clergymen and noblemen and other in- 
fluential and learned men in Silesia and throughout Germany, 
and in some localities, especially in the Principalities of Lieg- 
nitz and Jauer, almost the entire population, embraced his doc- 
trines; and for a time his adherents enjoyed the public minis- 
tration of the Gospel in not a few of the churches where they 
were most numerous, not as a distinct sect, but as part of the 
reformed Church in its wider sense. But their prosperity was 
short-lived. State reasons inclined the Protestant princes to 
favor the larger following of Luther, and most of the evangeli- 
cal pastors who adhered to Schwenkfeld's views were displaced, 
while but few were permitted to end their days with the 
churches which they served in Schwenkfeld's time, and these 
under admonitions to observe the Sacraments according to the 
Lutheran practice. Even Frederick II. of Liegnitz, whose 
friendship for Schwenkfeld never abated, yielded late in life to 
the pressure of the dominant influences in the Protestant 
Church, and dismissed the Court Preacher Werner for no 
other reason than that he continued to teach the same doctrines 
that the Duke approved when Schwenkfeld was near the 
Court. But Frederick could not entirely forget his first love, 
and while he lived no severity was exercised towards the peo- 
ple in his dominions. 

After the Duke's death, however, they fared worse. That 
they, on the one hand, were Protestant and Evangelical, and 
on the other declined fellowship with the Lutherans, was 



Xll THE SCHWENKFELDERS. 

enough to excite the intolerant spirit of the age, and invite per- 
secution from all sides. Other circumstances conspired to 
bring them into disfavor alike with the clergy and the civil 
magistrates. Their rejection of infant baptism was sufficient, 
in the judgment of those who cared not to inquire further, to 
justify the charge that they were Anabaptists, and bring upon 
them the odium of the excesses committed by that sect but a 
few years before at Miinster. Neither the explicit denial by 
Schwenkfeld in his lifetime of any sympathy with the Anabap- 
tists, nor the blameless lives of the people, who rendered unto 
Caesar the things that were Caesar's, and strove according to 
their knowledge to render unto God the things that were God's, 
availed to free them from that charge. They were called 
Schwenkfelders in derision, — a name which they accepted, — 
and were stigmatized by almost every name that was supposed 
to convey a reproach. The new Duke, Frederick III., deter- 
mined to stamp them out of his dominions, and issued a strin- 
gent decree against them, among other things imposing a fine 
of five hundred florins upon any person who should harbor an 
Anabaptist, by which he meant a Schwenkfelder, and later, 
ordered all their books to be seized and burned. 

These measures had the opposite effect to that intended ; the 
number of Schwenkfelders increased rather than diminished, 
but the persecutors did not gain wisdom from experience. 
Persecutions increased from year to year, until about 1580, 
when it seemed that every means that the ingenuity of man 
could devise was employed to coerce these people into either 
the Lutheran or the Catholic Church. In addition to former 
methods, the clergy refused to solemnize marriages until the 
contracting parties would partake of the Sacrament at the pa- 
rochial church ; men and women were dragged in chains into 
churches ; leading men were expelled from the country ; fre- 
quently when the people met at private houses for worship, as 



HISTORICAL SKETCH. Xlll 

was their custom, they were arrested and imprisoned, often in 
dungeons, where many died from starvation, cold, and violent 
treatment, and others contracted diseases of which they died 
soon after their release ; and finally large numbers were sent to 
Vienna, and there condemned without trial to serve in the wars 
with the Turks, or as oarsmen on Mediterranean galleys. And 
so the weary years passed until the outbreak of the Thirty 
Years' War necessitated conciliation, when the Schwenkfelders 
accepted the horrors of that prolonged struggle as a grateful 
change from the cruelties of religious persecution. But soon 
after the peace of Westphalia the old persecutions were re- 
newed with, if possible, increased rigor. From 1650 until 1658 
they were especially severe. 

Amid all these persecutions, without churches, without or- 
ganization, robbed to a great extent of their religious books, 
and forbidden under severe penalties to reprint those that had 
been committed to the flames, the Schwenkfelders maintained 
their faith and their worship in the Fatherland for more than 
two centuries. The Bible was, indeed, allowed to them, and of 
this they were diligent readers ; and, notwithstanding the efforts 
to suppress their literature, copies of Schwenkfeld's works 
and the sermons and other writings of Johann Sigismund 
Werner, Michael Hiller, Erasmus Weichenhan, and Christian 
Hoburg were here and there preserved, and these served the 
multitude who met at the houses of their possessors to hear 
them read. The entire Sabbath, from morning till night, was 
spent in worship and in listening to the reading of such books. 

Martin John, a learned physician of Hockenau, who wrote 
in the latter part of the seventeenth century, says : " Whoever 
had books, read on Sundays, and the others went to hear. The 
order was thus : In the morning, after each one had prayed 
when he rose from his bed, they assembled and sang the morn- 
ing song standing ; then they prayed from a prayer-book and 



XIV THE SCHWENKFELDERS. 

sang a hymn of invocation, especially to the Holy Ghost, all 
standing ; after that they sang sitting, then prayed, and there- 
upon read some sermons; then prayed again and sang a couple 
of hymns ; after that they ate at midday ; then prayed again 
standing and sang an invocatory hymn, after which they read 
quite until evening, when they prayed and sang standing. This 
was the order on Sunday, and when the people came together 
in the week-time (for spinning) they then almost always sang, 
and when any one wished to go home they knelt down to- 
gether and prayed." 

Towards the close of the seventeenth century the spirit of 
intolerance relaxed, and the Lutheran Church presenting her 
attractive side to this people, large numbers, especially of the 
young, were won over to her communion, and from that time 
the Schwenkfelders gradually decreased, until in 1718 they 
numbered only a few hundreds where they had formerly been 
counted by the thousands, and had disappeared entirely from 
many villages where they had once been numerous. Reduced 
in numbers as they now were, their conversion to the Roman 
Catholic faith was, nevertheless, deemed by the Jesuits an ob- 
ject of sufficient importance to enlist the energies of the Order 
in that direction, and in furtherance of such object they com- 
menced operations about this time at the Imperial Court. It 
was not difficult to persuade Charles VI. that the treaty of 
Westphalia in its interdiction of religious persecution did not 
protect the Schwenkfelders. An order to the government at 
Liegnitz to send in an official report of that people and their 
creed was therefore readily obtained, and in obedience thereto 
some of the leading men were summoned to appear at Lieg- 
nitz on the 19th of May, 17 18, where they were questioned 
and required to hand in a written declaration or confession of 
their faith and some of their doctrinal and devotional books. 
Next, the Lutheran pastors at Harpersdorf and Neudorf were 



HISTORICAL SKETCH. XV 

required to furnish lists of the Schwenkfelders in their respec- 
tive parishes. 

These proceedings were followed in December, 17 19, by the 
appearance of two Jesuit priests bearing a " Legitimation," 
issued by the Superior Magistracy at Breslau, in the name and 
by command of the Emperor, accrediting them as missionaries 
for the conversion of the Schwenkfelders, in the following 
words : 

" The Roman Emperor, also King in Germany, Spain, Hungary, and Bohemia, 
by his acting Privy Counsellor, Director, Chancellor, and Counsellors at the 
Royal Superior Domain in the Duchy of Upper and Lower Silesia. 

" Offers first his courteous services, amity, and all blessings to the royal offices 
and domains, as also to the magistrates, rulers, and officers, and to all lower juris- 
dictions, and others. And whereas his Imperial Majesty, our most gracious 
master, by virtue of a most gracious rescript issued unto the Royal Superior Do- 
main on the 1 8th day of September last, has graciously declared in what manner 
a mission should be established for the conversion of the Schwenkfelders living 
in the Principalities of Schweidnitz, Jauer, and Liegnitz, and has most graciously 
thought proper to appoint for this purpose two priests from the Jesuit Society, 
namely, the worthy P. P. Johann Milahn and Carolum Regent, and has further- 
more graciously commanded that the Superior Domain should provide said 
Patres Missionaries with letters patent so that they might not be impeded in their 
beneficial undertaking, therefore all the magistrates, rulers, and other inhabitants, 
of whatever standing, office, or condition, are accordingly enjoined not to molest 
in any way those Patres Missionaries, nor to impede them in their ecclesiastical 
functions quo quo modo, under avoidance of severe animadversion, but moreover 
they are commanded to render them readily all possible assistance and help, and 
thus not to give cause for any complaint. In executing hereby the most gracious 
command of his Imperial Majesty we have no doubt of your acting in accordance 
therewith. 

" Hans Anton Count Schafgotsch (L. S.), ex consilio Reg. Cur. 
" Franz Carl Count Cottulinsky, Due. Silesiae; 
" M. J. Aglo von Wiesenstein, etc." 
" Breslau, the 9th of October, 1719. 

The royal government at Liegnitz added to this Legitimation 
of the Superior Magistracy, the following : 

" All the hereinbefore named dominions, especially those at Harpersdorf, Ar- 



XVI THE SCHWENKFELDERS. 

menruh, and Hockenau, where within the Principality of Liegnitz the most 
Schwenkfelders are living and dwelling, and all the inhabitants of the precinct 
of Goldberg, are hereby strictly directed, ordered, and commanded not to hinder 
the above-named two Patres Soc. Jesu in this mission charge conferred upon 
them by his Maj., not even under the pretence that they are overreaching the 
missionary object; but much less subject them to anything unbecoming or trouble- 
some, but moreover to manifest to them with readiness all necessary assistance. 
By all of which ye shall show your proper regard, etc. 

" W., Count of Wurben, Governor-General. 
" Liegnitz, the 15th day of December, 1719." 

At first the missionaries required only the men to attend 
their services, and sought to win them by expounding the doc- 
trines of the Catholic Church, and attempting to refute those of 
the Schwenkfelders. But in the latter they found no easy 
task. To the end that they might know what they had to re- 
fute, they demanded answers in writing to a number of ques- 
tions. These were cheerfully given, and at considerable length ; 
every proposition being supported by abundant citations of 
Scripture and from the Church Fathers. Finding the people 
so strongly fortified in their religious opinions, and so apt to 
defend them, the missionaries became irritated and threatened 
to adopt harsher methods after the close of the year 1720. 
Accordingly, early in the year 1 721, it was announced that the 
women and children must be brought to the missionaries for 
instruction in the Catholic religion; and an imperial edict to 
this effect was exhibited. 

There was now consternation among the people. So long as 
only men of mature judgment were required to hear the in- 
structions of the missionaries, they feared nothing, but they 
could not endure the subjection of their tender offspring to 
teachings and influences which they regarded as pernicious. 
They therefore, on the 5th of May, 1721, dispatched three 
deputies — Christopher Hoffmann, Balthasar Hoffmann, and 
Balthasar Hoffrichter — to Vienna to sue for toleration. These 



HISTORICAL SKETCH. Xvil 

deputies were graciously received by the Emperor, and re- 
mained at the Court five years, during which time they pre- 
sented no less than seventeen memorials to the Emperor in 
person at audiences granted for that purpose, setting forth the 
persecutions suffered by their people at the hands of the mis- 
sionaries and of the magistrates at the instigation of the mis- 
sionaries, and praying for toleration and protection. But not- 
withstanding the Emperor's uniform kindness of manner at 
these audiences, and that he ordered a cessation of violence 
until further consideration, matters constantly grew worse in 
Silesia. 

When parents refused to present their children for instruc- 
tion, they were imprisoned ; women were placed in the stocks 
and compelled to lie in cold rooms in the winter without so 
much as straw under them ; and when imprisonment failed to 
bring the people with their children to the missionary services, 
fines and extortions were added. Marriages were forbidden 
unless the parties would promise to rear their offspring in the 
Catholic faith, and when young people went into other coun- 
tries to be married, they were imprisoned for that on their re- 
turn. The dead were not allowed Christian burial in the 
churchyards where their ancestors of the same faith for many 
generations slept, but were required to be interred in cattle-ways, 
and sorrowing friends were forbidden to follow the remains of 
loved ones to these ignominious resting-places. Hundreds of 
Schwenkfelders were so buried at Harpersdorf, Laugenneu- 
dorf, and Lauterseifen during the twenty years that the mission 
was maintained. The missionaries claimed guardianship of all 
orphan children of Schwenkfelders, and thus the last hours of 
the dying were embittered by the thought that their children

erty or, under any pretext, leave the country, and severe pen- 
alties were denounced against any person who should assist a 
Schwenkfelder to escape by purchasing his property, or other- 
wise. 

The deputies made a final appeal to the Emperor for mercy 
on the 28th of July, 1725. That appeal was answered by the 
publication — in September — of the following decree : 

"CHARLES THE SIXTH. 

" Dear Faithful : We received your obedient report of March 20th, of this 
year, by which you have informed us of the condition of the ecclesiastical mission 
appointed for the conversion of those Schwenkfelder Sectariorum sojourning at 
several places in our Duchy of Silesia. As we now most graciously desire a 
better progress of the mission, we therefore provide : 

" Primo, most graciously to wit : That the mission henceforth exercise all their 
power to accomplish the work of conversion with profit and good effect. And 
likewise 

" Secundo, that all watchful oversight of the mock preachers and Seductores 
from the authority of the country, and especially from those missionaries, be kept 
as heretofore commanded, and in case of any trespass at once to arrest the guilty 
and to punish them in terrorem alior, and to report to us aggravating occur- 
rences if thought proper, and also we desire that the same may be understood 
concerning those Schwenkfelder inhabitants and housekeepers who permit 
Schwenkfelder conventicula in their houses, or who are leaders or instigators to 
persistence in those heretical errors. In such a manner that they shall be arrested 
as soon as the same shall be sufficiently apparent, brought here and their names 
entered. So it shall 

" Tertio, not only be a settled matter that the Schwenkfelder books of instruc- 
tion shall be hunted up and taken away, as also no less 

" Quarto, that the children of the Schwenkfelders shall be brought to preach- 
ing and catechizing, and also the adulti Sectarii themselves shall be held to the 
presence and hearing thereof, and those who without good cause absent them- 
selves, shall at the first occurrence be charged with a money fine in proportion to 
their circumstances ; for the second time it shall be doubled ; upon further reni- 
tenz to the contrary they shall be punished according to the nature of the case 
with arrest or opere publico : and further the Schwenkfelder congregations in 
their submissive requests to be tolerated in their confession of faith in future, are 
once for all refused, and they shall never hereafter venture to present any new

supplications ; and be it in all seriousness announced to all the respective juris- 
dictions and public authorities that the missionary fathers shall by nothing, and 
in no way or manner, be hindered, but upon their call shall receive all necessary 
assistance with all force and effect. Also to report to us, from time to time, all 
future occurrences by and through our royal Bohemian Court Bureau. Herein 
let our will be executed.

The missionaries now bent all their energies to the accom- 
plishment of the work in hand, and to the full exercised with 
the utmost rigor the powers granted to them, and were aided 
therein by the civil magistrates even to patrolling the highways 
to prevent the escape of any of the doomed people. Thus was 
this unhappy people shut up to the choice of either apostasy, 
or continued endurance of the ever-increasing miseries of their 
situation, or flight. The first was to the true Schwenkfelder 
simply impossible ; the second was too horrible to be contem- 
plated. They therefore resolved to escape from the country at 
all hazards. 

The exodus commenced in the month of February, 1726. 
During that month and the months of March, April, and May 
following, upwards of one hundred and seventy families escaped 
by night from Harpersdorf, Armenruh, and Hockenau, and fled 
on foot to Upper Lusatia, then a part of the Electorate of Saxony, 



XX THE SCHWENKFELDERS. 

and found shelter at Wirsa near Greissenberg, Gorlitz, Henners- 
dorf near Gorlitz, Berthelsdorf, and Herrnhut. In consequence 
of the prohibition of sales of property by Schwenkfelders, and 
the police regulations to prevent emigration, they were obliged 
to leave all their property behind except what they could carry 
upon their backs or upon wheelbarrows. Consequently the 
less provident, who had laid up little or no money, found them- 
selves in great destitution amongst strangers. They were, 
however, hospitably received, and treated with much considera- 
tion by the Senate of Gorlitz, and by Count Zinzendorf, at Ber- 
thelsdorf and Herrnhut, and soon after their arrival assistance 
came to them unexpectedly from theretofore unknown friends 
in Holland. They lived here in a state of uncertainty as to 
the future for eight years. 

The assistance received from Holland led to a correspond- 
ence with the Dutch benefactors, who strongly advised emi- 
gration to Pennsylvania. Some, however, began to purchase 
homes in Lusatia, and it is doubtful whether all would not 
have settled there permanently had not subsequent events 
proved the advice of the Hollanders to have been both timely 
and wise. In the spring of 1733 Count Zinzendorf informed 
them that they would be tolerated no longer in Lusatia, and 
referred them to the superior magistrate at Bautzen for the 
reasons. It was ascertained that application had been made 
for their enforced return to Silesia. They were, however, per- 
mitted to remain until the next spring. 

Soon after Count Zinzendorf's announcement that protection 
would be withdrawn, two families emigrated to Pennsylvania, 
arriving at Philadelphia on the 18th of September (O. S.), 1733. 
Their report of the country, and the advice of the friends in 
Holland, determined about forty families to follow them 
Their first care was to proceed orderly and obtain the permis- 
sion of the sovereign to whom they proposed to transfer their 



HISTORICAL SKETCH. Xxi 

allegiance. This secured, they set out in April, 1734, for 
Altona, in Denmark, where they arrived on the 17th of May. 
On their arrival at Altona, they found preparations made for 
their reception, and were most hospitably entertained until the 
28th, when they embarked on three small vessels for Haarlem, 
arriving at the latter place on the 6th of June. Here they 
were received with open arms, and overwhelmed with kindness 
by their benefactors of former years. 

The disinterested kindness of a mercantile house in Haarlem, 
composed of three brothers, Abraham, Isaac, and John Von 
Byuschanse, deserves more than a passing notice here. Their 
attentions to the strangers were not limited to seeing that 
there were no actual wants unsupplied ; they strove by per- 
sonal attentions to make the stay of the party in Haarlem 
enjoyable. The little ones especially came in for a full share 
of their kindly offices. Part of the contribution sent to Gor- 
litz in 1726 for the relief of the destitute remained unexpended, 
and those having it in charge offered to return it to the donors, 
there being no further need of such assistance. The Messrs. 
Von Byuschanse would not listen to the offer, but directed the 
fund to be expended for the benefit of the poorer people when 
they should arrive in Pennsylvania. And not content with all 
that they had done, they insisted upon providing at their own 
expense a vessel for the transportation of the whole company 
to Philadelphia, and defraying the entire expense of the voy- 
age. This noble benefaction was bread cast upon the waters. 
The descendants and successors in the business of the Messrs. 
Von Byuschanse met with reverses in the year 1790. Infor- 
mation of this fact coming to the Schwenkfelders in Pennsylva- 
nia, they, in grateful remembrance of the kindness shown to 
their own ancestors and to some of themselves in childhood 
more than half a century before, raised a considerable sum of 
money, and sent it to the relief of the distressed house.. 



XXU THE SCHWENKFELDERS. 

The emigrants remained at Haarlem, enjoying the munificent 
hospitality of the Messrs. Von Byuschanse, until the 19th of 
June, when they proceeded to Rotterdam, and there embarked 
for Pennsylvania on an English ship, the St. Andrew, which 
had been chartered for them by their large-hearted friends, and 
touching at Plymouth, England, arrived at Philadelphia on the 
22d of September (N. S.), 1734. On the next day all male per- 
sons over the age of sixteen years proceeded to the State- 
house, and there subscribed a pledge of allegiance to George 
II., King of Great Britain, and his successors, and of fidelity to 
the proprietor of the province. They spent the 24th in thanks- 
giving to Almighty God for delivering them out of the hands of 
their persecutors, for raising up friends in the times of their 
greatest need, and for leading them into a land of freedom, 
where they might worship Him unmolested by civil or eccle- 
siastical power. This day, the 24th of September, was thence- 
forth set apart to be observed by them and their descendants, 
through all time, as a day of Thanksgiving commemorative of 
the Divine goodness manifested in their deliverance from the 
persecutions of the Fatherland. To this day it is so observed. 

The little band who had passed through so many trials 
together were now to separate. Some settled within the pres- 
ent limits of the city of Philadelphia, in the neighborhood of 
Chestnut Hill; others in the now counties of Montgomery, 
Berks, and Lehigh, there to convert the wilderness into happy 
homes, that in many instances have been enjoyed by their 
descendants till this day. It is needless to dwell on the hard- 
ships and privations of the first few years. They were such 
as were the common lot of all the early settlers of Pennsylva- 
nia, mitigated by the remembrance of what had been ex- 
changed for them. 

Dispersed as the people were, they nevertheless remained 
one in faith and in the bonds of mutual sympathy and love, and 



HISTORICAL SKETCH. XX111 

promptly set up the worship of Almighty God in their new- 
home. They were without a pastor, but fortunately not with- 
out a man qualified by many gifts and graces to fill the sacred 
office. That man was George Weis. He had been selected 
on the eve of departure from Lusatia to " give instruction to 
the children, and render such other spiritual services as might 
be required," and had conducted the thanksgiving services on 
arrival in this country and perhaps other services, and having 
proved acceptable, was, in December, 1734, elected by the 
"house fathers" to the pastoral office. He served with great 
acceptance till his death, in 1740, when he was succeeded by 
Rev.' Balthasar Hoffman. 

It was natural to expect that the remaining Schwenkfelders 
would follow their emigrant brethren as rapidly as circum- 
stances would admit. Such, however, was not the case. The 
very violence of the missionaries worked its own temporary 
cure, and for a time the necessity for flight was removed. 
Says Kadelbach :* " The respective local rulers, lords of the 
soil, saw with indignation the expatriation of their most active 
and peaceful subjects, and the decline of the prosperity of their 
communities." Thus was an influential public opinion awak- 
ened against the missionaries, not so much, indeed, by the out- 
rageous cruelty of their methods, as by its effects on the public 
prosperity ; but it was none the less potent, and its pressure 
was felt in a quarter where it was least expected to be respected. 
The same author says : " Even the Catholic clergy of the sur- 
rounding country declared themselves by no means in accord 
with the behavior of the missionaries, and were greatly dissatis- 
fied with this sort of conversion." Of course this meant a change 
of tactics, and the Schwenkfelders had comparative rest for a 
few years.

XXIV THE SCIIWENKFELDERS. 

About the close of the year 1735, however, the old methods 
of conversion were revived, and in the following year a num- 
ber of families fled into Saxony, whence one family came to 
Pennsylvania the same year, and four others in 1737. Again 
there was anxiety about the loss of subjects, and, whether in 
consequence of representations by the local governments or of 
other promptings, an imperial order was issued temporarily 
suspending the exercise of the extraordinary powers of the 
missionaries, and directing a searching investigation of their 
conduct; and again there was comparative exemption from 
persecution. 

But whatever steadiness of purpose Charles VI. manifested 
in the general administration of the affairs of the empire, 
his conduct towards the Schwenkfelders had always been 
characterized by fickleness. Each spasmodic exhibition of 
a tolerant disposition had been followed by a more intoler- 
ant decree from the Imperial Court, and it was too late now 
when, nearing the end of his career, he was engaged in 
securing guarantees of the inviolability, after his death, of the 
Pragmatic Sanction, to expect more firmness in his good in- 
tentions towards this people than he had before shown. The 
next spring a decree was published to the effect that the 
" Schwenkfelder heresy" must be trodden out, and its adherents 
coerced into the Catholic Church within one year. But it. was 
a vain decree. The hour of final deliverance and, in some 
measure, of retribution, was approaching. Within the year 
appointed for the extermination of the Schwenkfelders Charles 
had paid the debt of nature, and Frederick the Great had vin- 
dicated his better title to Silesia, under the agreement of mu- 
tual succession made two centuries before between his ances- 
tor, the Elector of Brandenburg, and the Duke of Liegnitz, and 
had proclaimed religious freedom in the long-misgoverned 
principalities. 



HISTORICAL SKETCH. XXV 

Frederick was not content to merely put a stop to religious 
persecutions. Damage had been sustained by the country in 
the loss of valued subjects, and great wrongs had been done to 
individuals. He desired to repair the former and was willing 
to redress the latter even at the expense of the royal treasury. 
For that purpose he issued an edict in 1742 which reflects the 
highest honor upon himself, and, when the insignificance of 
their numbers is considered, pays a flattering tribute to the 
worth of the exiled Schwenkfelders. As exhibiting the esti- 
mation in which the ancestors of those whose names are con- 
tained in the following pages were held, and at the same time 
as a happy contrast to the before-recited decree of Charles VI., 
that edict is here presented in extenso : 

" Edict to provide for the re-establishment of the so-called Schwenkfelders in 
Silesia and other provinces of his Royal Majesty ; De dato Selowitz the 8th of 
March, 1742. 

" We, Frederick, by the Grace of God, King of Prussia, Margrave of Branden- 
burg, Arch Chamberlain, and Elector of the Holy Roman Empire, etc., etc. ■ 

" Be it known to all to whom these presents may come : Whereas we do hold 
nothing to be so contrary to Nature, Reason, and Principles of the Christian Re- 
ligion as the forcing of the subjects' consciences, and persecuting them about any 
erroneous doctrines which do not concern the fundamental principles of the 
Christian Religion. We have, therefore, most graciously resolved that the so- 
called Schwenkfelders, who were exiled through an imprudent zeal for Religion, 
to the irreparable damage of commerce and of the country, be recalled into our 
Sovereign Duchy of Lower Silesia. We have, therefore, thought fit by these 
presents to assure all those who possess the said doctrine, upon our Royal word 
that they shall and may safely return not only into our Sovereign Duchy of 
Lower Silesia, but also into all our provinces, peaceably to live and trade there, 
since we not only do receive them into our special protection, but also will give 
them all necessary supplies for the promotion of their commerce. And all those 
who, several years ago, were deprived of their habitations and estates in our 
country of Silesia, shall be reinstated without any compensation in case those 
estates are not paid for by the new possessors. Such as will settle in our villages 
shall have farms assigned to them, and care shall be taken to provide them em- 
ployment, and those who choose to live in towns shall, besides several ordinary

Free years, have places assigned them gratis for the building of their houses, for 
which purposes they need only apply to our Military and Domainen Chambers. 

"We do therefore command our Superior Colleges of Justice and Finance, as 
also all mediate Princes, Lords, Magistrates, etc., carefully to observe the same. 

" In Witness whereof we have signed this present Edict with our own hand, 
and caused our Royal Seal to be affixed.

Much as they loved the Fatherland in spite of the cruel 
wrongs which they and their ancestors for two centuries had 
suffered, none of the Schwenkfelders in Pennsylvania availed 
themselves of the royal invitation to return to their former 
homes. They had become attached to the government under 
which they had for eight years enjoyed absolute freedom and 
a measure of prosperity that promised better things in the fu- 
ture than restoration of their estates in Silesia. They had 
come here to stay, and had laid foundations which they were 
loath to abandon. They had acquired permanent homes ; they 
had established and thus far maintained public worship ; re- 
membering the words of Christ : For ye have the poor with you 
always, and whensoever ye will, ye may do them good ; they 
had established a Poor Fund, which, increasing with increased 
prosperity, has, for nearly a century and a half, satisfied every 
call upon it from within their communion and scattered its 
blessings outside ; and they had established a School Fund 
which supplied every want intended to be supplied by the sys- 
tem of public instruction established by the State many years 
later. In short, they had taken root in the soil of Pennsyl- 
vania. 

For many years they could not be said to have had an or- 
ganization as a church. Indeed, the want of an organization 
was not felt while there were but few families, and they widely 



HISTORICAL SKETCH. XXV11 

separated. But after the death of their second pastor, Rev. 
Balthasar Hoffman, in 1775, with increased membership, the 
necessity for an organization was recognized and soon received 
attention. Christopher Schultz, a man of great learning, 
ability, and zeal, and withal peculiarly fitted for the special work 
before him, was now, after fervent prayer for the divine guid- 
ance therein, called to the pastoral office. He addressed him- 
self to the work of organization, and prepared a constitution or 
system of church government which was formally adopted on 
the 17th of August, 1782. For administrative purposes two 
districts were created, known as the " Upper District " and the 
" Lower District." It was provided that each district should 
elect a president, three elders, two trustees, and a treasurer of 
the School Fund, and a treasurer of the Poor Fund. Two 
congregations or individual churches were then organized, one 
in each district. 

The duties of the elders are to see that church order is 
strictly observed, and to examine all matters in dispute between 
members and, if possible, adjust the same. One elder is elected 
every year in each district for the term of three years, and no 
elder can be re-elected until at least one year after the expira- 
tion of his last term. After the adoption of the common school 
system of the State the name of the School Fund was changed 
to " Literary Fund," and the fund itself devoted to literary pur- 
poses, and the duties of the officers of the Fund were corre- 
spondingly modified. The duties of the other officers are 
sufficiently indicated by their titles. The members on their 
part are enjoined to pay their debts without legal proceedings, 
and to " live quiet, virtuous, peaceable, Christian lives according 
to the will of Christ in all meekness and lowliness as the quiet 
in the land, and to be true and faithful in their spiritual as well 
as their temporal calling." 

Owing to the dispersion of the members and the conse- 



XXV111 THE SCHWENK.FELDERS. 

quent impracticability of assembling any considerable numbers 
at any one point, no church edifices were erected until the 
year 1789. In that year a church was erected in the upper 
district, and soon after one in the lower. At later periods two 
more churches were built in each district, making six in all. 
Until these accommodations were provided, divine service was 
held at private houses, as it had been in the Fatherland, and in 
the absence of the pastor was conducted by one of the mem- 
bers. The service was opened with singing and prayer. The 
Gospel lesson for the day was then read, and sometimes ex- 
pounded, after which a sermon from Weichenhan's, Werner's, 
or Hiller's Postille was read, followed by singing and prayer. 
While there was but a single pastor, there were a number of 
members who acceptably led meetings for worship and per- 
formed much of the pastoral work. At later periods the min- 
istry was increased, until there are now three active ministers 
in each district. 

The religious training and education of their children was 
from an early period regarded by the Schwenkfelders as a 
matter of prime importance. The exact date of the establish- 
ment of Kinder Lehr cannot now be ascertained, but the first 
appointment of George Weis before he was called to the full 
work of the ministry proves that the institution was brought to 
this country from Germany, and when the immigrants devoted, 
as they did, every alternate Sabbath to the instruction of the 
youth by catechetical lectures, it was evidently no new thing. 
Rev. Christopher Schultz gave an impetus to this department 
of church-work by his untiring labors therein, and by an excel- 
lent Catechism which he prepared for the instruction of chil- 
dren. The solicitude of the church for the children is shown 
in a ceremony originated in this country. As soon as conve- 
niently may be after the birth of a child it is brought into 
church and the minister prays for its happiness and prosperity, 



HISTORICAL SKETCH. XXIX 

and admonishes its parents to " bring it up in the nurture and 
admonition of the Lord according to the will of God." This 
service is sometimes performed at the home of the parents. 

The literature of the Schwenkfelders is almost exclusively 
in the German language. Their printed works are mainly 
those hereinbefore incidentally mentioned, to which may be 
added the Erlauterung, etc., published in 1771, and of which 
a second edition appeared in 1830; and a work by the 
venerated Schultz, entitled "A Compendium of Christian 
Faith." But a large and valuable portion of their literature is 
yet in manuscript, being in part the writings of cotemporaries 
of Schwenkfeld and of others of the next century. A single 
volume appeared in an English dress in 1858, containing 
Schwenkfeld's " Heavenly Balm and Divine Physician," and 
" Threefold Life of Man," translated by the Rev. F. R. An- 
spach, D.D.

GENEALOGICAL RECORD. 



George Weiss, the first minister of the society of Schwenk- 
felders in America, came to Pennsylvania, in 1734, 
with the colony, and settled in Lower Salford, then 
Philadelphia County. He was born in Harpersdorf, 
Lower Silesia, in Germany, in 1687. In 1720, when 
the Roman missionaries appeared in Silesia to con- 
vert the followers of Schwenkfeld to the Roman Cath- 
olic faith, George Weiss was selected on the part of 
the latter to write their confession of faith, or reply 
to the written questions of the missionaries. How 
well he performed this important task may be seen by 
reference to the "Erlauterung," page 85, and also page 
341.* But the more these missionaries were worsted 
in argument, the more they had recourse to force ; the 
result is well known. Weiss with his wife and other 
friends fled the country by night in the month of 
April, 1726, leaving their properties in the hands of 
their persecutors ; came to Herrnhut in Saxony on the 
5th of May. During his eight years' stay at Herrn- 
hut he followed weaving and teaching. We do know 
that Rev. Christopher Schultz, Sr., then quite a young 
lad, came to Weiss for instruction in languages, and 
that the warmest friendship and attachment existed

between teacher and pupil during the remaining years 
of Weiss's lifetime. In a historical manuscript writ- 
ten by Rev. Baltzer Hoffman, 1750, compiled by Chris- 
topher Hoffman, 1771, we find that our pilgrim fathers 
on the eve of their departure for America appointed 
Weiss as a kind of leader or teacher in spiritual 
things for adults, as well as catechist for the young, 
there and on shipboard, which appointment he accepted 
and carried out ; and that about a year and a quarter 
after arriving in America (December 9, 1735) Weiss 
was formally appointed the first Schwenkfelder minister 
of the Gospel and catechist in this country, and that 
he officiated in that capacity in an acceptable manner 
up to the time of his death, which occurred on his farm 
on Skippack Creek, in Lower Salford, Montgomery 
County, on the 11th of March, 1740, in the fifty-third 
year of his age. His body lays buried at the meeting- 
house near by, where a handsome stone has been 
erected to his memory. Rev. B. Hoffman writes that 
Weiss was married in 1715 to Anna Meschter, of Lan- 
genneudorf; that they had one child, a son, who died 
when about a year old ; that he also had a brother and 
a sister who both died young in Silesia; that shortly 
after their arrival in America he also lost his wife by 
death, and had her buried in the " Pilgrims' Ceme- 
tery " at Philadelphia. Thus Weiss himself was the 
only remnant left of the family this side of the grave, 
and having the spiritual welfare of his disorganized 
and scattered flock at heart, he labored for them in 
season and out of season; but in time he became con- 
siderably disappointed in seeing no better results, and 
finding so much lukewarmness and worldly-minded- 
ness, etc., that during a spell of sickness which befell 
him in 1739, he was on the point of relinquishing his

ministerial labors altogether ; but with returning 
health, God gave him increased courage, and he kept 
on laboring in his Master's cause until within a few 
days of his unlooked for and early death. 
On the 3d of March, 1740, he was at Goshenhoppen, 
where in the evening he for the last time met and 
instructed his catechumens ; and on the following 
morning, although in feeble health, and only six days 
before his death, he preached for the last time to his 
congregated friends. A synopsis of Weiss's remarks 
on these occasions is given by Hoffman at the close of 
his interesting Manuscripts. 

Weiss was an example of unaffected piety, simplicity, 
and fidelity, well versed in spiritual knowledge, earn- 
est and impressive in his ministrations. He was a 
worthy son of the venerable Casper Weiss, who, when 
quite old and weak in body, was called before the no- 
torious Neander and compelled to stand in the latter's 
study for six long hours to give an account of his faith.

nitz, in Silesia, Austria. By his own testimony he was 
born of " worthy poor and lowly parents," and was first 
reared to the trade of a weaver, occasionally working 
as a day laborer in the summer. He early embraced 
the religious principles of Caspar Schwenkfeld. He 
was tall in stature, lean in person, and "after his 
fiftieth year wore an entire white head." From his 
earliest youth he seems to have been very industrious 
and desirous of acquiring truth. By assiduous labor 
he soon gained a knowledge of Latin, Greek, and 
Hebrew, and by help of good books set himself to 
study the Sacred Scriptures, for which his knowledge 
of the languages gave him great facilities. He was 
very diligent in acquainting himself with Christian 
teachings around him, and especially of those promul- 
gated by Caspar Schwenkfeld. 

In 1719 the Reformation had made great progress in 
Silesia, and the Catholic Church in 1721 sent a mis- 
sion to convert the people back to the old faith, at 
first laboring with them mildly, but soon after com- 
mitting great acts of violence. The persecuted people 
in 1721, therefore, resolved to send an embassy to the 
Emperor, to implore toleration. Of this body Bal- 
thasar was one. During this effort, which lasted five 
years, Hoffman delivered no less than seventeen me- 
morials to the royal ruler. At last, however, in 1726, 
the mission turned the heart of the sovereign still 
more against the reformed people, so that Balthasar 
dared not show himself by day, but had to return by 
night, taking with him to Ober Lausitz his wife and 
two daughters. Even there he was not safe, but fled 
again with his gray-haired father from Vienna by way 
of Prague to Lausitz, and obtained the protection of 
Count Zinzendorf. Here he resided eight years, 



GENEALOGICAL RECORD. 7 

during which time a son was born to him. As toler- 
ance was not even here assured he, with many others, 
concluded to emigrate to Pennsylvania, where William 
Penn had promised religious freedom to all. This 
resolution was formed in 1734, and on September 22 
of the same year, with his wife and family, " under 
the guidance of the good Lord they arrived at Phila- 
delphia, and offered praise to God for his graciousness 
to them." He was especially grateful that no evil had 
befallen them on the way, and further that kind 
friends in Holland had sent himself over free and 
without cost to him. He did not remain in the city, 
but removed to the country, " where, too, the grace of 
God provided for him and his." During all this time 
he continued a diligent Bible reader and Christian 
teacher to those around him. Here he freely wor- 
shipped God according to the dictates of conscience. 
Upon the death of the Rev. George Weiss, the first 
minister of the Schwenkfelders in America, in 1740, 
Hoffman was chosen to officiate in his stead. Not 
being constitutionally strong in body, he several times 
withdrew, especially in 1749, when he became afflicted 
on his breast and debilitated in his power of speech 
and of singing. Still, demands were made upon him, 
particularly for outdoor services, as catechizing the 
children ; but by the help of God he labored till the 
weight of years made it impossible. Nor did he ever 
tire in his many duties. His Sabbath forenoons, after- 
noons, or evenings, were employed in writing, reading, 
and singing. He left many letters and writings on 
Holy Scripture and Christian teachings, prompted by 
the questions of others as well as of his own concep- 
tion, thus at once rendering service to his brethren in 
time to come. He also left hymns. Of these writ-

ings we have a catalogue. " To him idleness and the 
want of truth were of great moment, seeing how God's 
gift of freedom was misapplied." 
The closing years of Balthasar Hoffman's life were 
spent in a small room, spinning ; yet daily would he 
read, write, sing, and pray. And as he had long been 
blessed with bodily health, so God protected him 
against much and severe sickness in his last days. 
Gradually, however, his sanctified spirit was loosened 
from its earthly tabernacle, and nature sank year by 
year, till December 21, 1774, when he was attacked 
with vertigo and increasing debility, and on July 11, 
1775, in his 89th year, he j)assed peacefully away. His 
wife, Ursula, died May 15, 1767, aged 80 years, and 
both lie buried in the Schwenkfelder burying-ground 
belonging to the congregation in Lower Salford. Bal- 
thasar Hoffman and wife left three children, Anna, 
Rosina, and Christopher, who succeeded his father as 
minister of the society ; his children were all born in 
Europe. All three were married, but the son left no 
issue. There are descendants of the daughters, how- 
ever, to the fifth and sixth generations. 
He remained an acceptable minister of the Schwenk- 
felders from the death of Weiss in 1740 until the 
time of his death. He resided on a tract of land by 
the east side of Skippack Creek, two miles west of 
Franconia village, now owned by Henry Derstine. 
He was a man of eminent wisdom and piety, and left 
behind him a catalogue of his writings, embracing 
fifty-eight tracts, all on theology and practical reli- 
gion, besides eighty -three letters on various kindred 
topics. 

Christopher Hoffman, the father of Balthasar, died in 
Saxony, under the protection of Count Zinzendorf ; he,

Lower Harpersdorf, Dukedom Liegnitz, Silesia, March 
26, 1718. He was the youngest son of Melchior 
Schultz (who was born in 1680) ; had two brothers, 
George and Melchior. In the spring of 1726, owing 
to religious persecutions then prevailing, this family 
and other friends left their homes and possessions and 
fled the country by night, came to Berthelsclorf, in 
Saxony, May 1. Here young Christopher was em- 
ployed as a shepherd boy, and also learned the weaver's 
trade, besides being occupied with spinning and other 
work. He evinced a great desire for books and learn- 
ing, the means to obtain which not being at hand he 
was granted whatever time he could gain by extra 
exertions; this inducement was irresistible, and no 
doubt marks the beginning of a new era in the lad's 
career. He now performed his allotted work in two- 
thirds of the ordinary time, thus gaining two days per 
week, during which he would hasten to his kind friend 
and teacher, Rev. George Weiss, to study languages. 
In these studies he advanced with astonishing alacrity ; 
before he was ten years of age he had acquired a 
pretty general knowledge of the Latin, and also knew 
the rudiments of the Greek and Hebrew languages. 
After enjoying comparative liberty and quiet under 
the kind protection of Count Zinzendorf for nearly 
eight years, the important question again arose whether 
the family and their religious friends should leave the 
country or their faith, and by the aid of Him in whom 
they believed and whom they served, it was again de- 
cided in the right way ; but both parents went to rest 



Melchior Schultz, was born June 26, 1680, and died February 15, 1734, in 
the fifty-fourth year of his age at Berthelsdorf, Saxony, about two months 
before the then contemplated emigration. The last-named Melchior Schultz 
was the father of George, Melchior, and Christopher Schultz.

in death shortly before the then contemplated emi- 
gration to America. 

The three orphan boys, George, Melchior, and Chris- 
topher, joining some forty Schwenkfelder families, 
forever turned their backs upon their native land, 
embarked for Philadelphia, where, after a tedious 
voyage of about five months, they arrived September 
22, 1734. Young Christopher kept a diary (" Reise 
Beschreibung "), which is found in print in the " Er- 
lauterung," of which book he also was the chief com- 
piler, and which gives a brief history of the persecu- 
tions which befell Schwenkfeld and his followers in 
Silesia, and an impartial exposition of the doctrinal 
points upon which they and their opponents differed, 
etc. 

At a comparatively early period Christopher Schultz 
was looked to as a leading spirit among the Schwenk- 
felders, and was chosen as their Gospel minister, in 
which capacity he served faithfully and efficiently to 
the end of his life. 

He was the chief organizer of the Schwenkfelders 
into a formal religious body or congregation, compos- 
ing their present catechism, collating their hymn- 
book, writing their constitution (Grund Eegeln), and 
a " Compendium " of religious doctrines of faith of 
600 octavo pages — an excellent work, eminently 
catholic, and, like the catechism, everywhere substan- 
tiated by Bible truths and references. 
For many years, up to the end of the American Be vo- 
lution, Father Schultz kept up a correspondence with 
friends left in Germany; copies of some of his letters 
and of those written in reply (all in German manu- 
script) are still at hand. Father Schultz lived in stir- 
ring times and he experienced a great deal. At the 



GENEALOGICAL RECORD. 27 

age of eight years we find him with the family fleeing 
the country at night. A year and more thereafter we 
find him employed as a shepherd boy near Berthels- 
dorf, in Saxony, book in hand, translating from Latin 
into German extracts from the " Zehen Haupt Ver- 
folgungen Der Ersten Christen." At the age of six- 
teen he was on the British ship St. Andrew, a close 
observer and recorder of the events of a five months' 
voyage to the land of Penn. At the age of eighteen 
we find him and his two brothers in a dense wood 
forty-two miles north of Philadelphia, two miles west 
of what is now the borough of East Greenville, select- 
ing a site for their future home, which they found at 
a spring where the bear and deer at first seemed in- 
clined to dispute possession. Here, in 1736, with the 
assistance of Melchior Neuman, carpenter, they com- 
menced felling the tall oaks, rolling them on a scaffold 
over a trench, sawed them by hand into three-inch 
plank, whereof the outside walls of their capacious two- 
story house was constructed. Wagon-wheels were 
made of the same article, horse collars skilfully plaited 
of straw, traces of hemp, grubbing hoe preceded the 
plough with wooden mould-board ; no saw-mill was 
within reach, no grist-mill within fifteen miles. For 
clothing the Schultz's raised their own flax and wool, 
spun it with the aid of a single spindle (without wheel 
or machinery of any kind), erected a weavers' loom, 
wove the yarn into cloth. When the supply exceeded 
the wants they took it to Philadelphia, and, on one oc- 
casion, sold it to the Governor of the Province at eight 
shillings per yard. The Governor spoke very highly 
of their linen, which encouraged them not a little. 
The three brothers lived together in peace and har- 
mony, and at the end of about ten years, under the

blessings of Providence, they had considerably extended 
their landed domains, increased their flocks, and filled 
their coffers, so that the question which once engaged 
the attention of Abraham and Lot, at their parting, 
now agitated the minds of the Schultz brothers. The 
result was, Melchior and Christopher sold out to their 
elder brother George; the former went about three 
miles north, bought a farm there; Christopher, having 
married in 1744, now bought and settled on what is at 
present the fine farm of his great-grandson, Henry S. 
Schultz, near Clayton, Berks County. Here he lived 
to the end of his life. Let us here take a short retro- 
spective glance at the situation of our plundered and 
persecuted Pilgrim fathers in their temporary home in 
Saxony, which certainly was not one of ease and com- 
fort, and the family of Melchior Schultz was no ex- 
ception to this ; and when death came, removing a 
kind father and a loving mother, the three orphan boys 
must have felt like lambs cut off from the flock and 
left alone in the wilderness. There was yet one way 
left for them; their united bleatings could be heard by 
the ever-listening ear of the Good Shepherd on high. 
But we were going to say, situated as they then were, 
a liberal school education was out of the question. In 
this dilemma they may have taken the advice of St. 
James, 1:5. Be this as it may, in Christopher 
Schultz we find a learned man with very little school- 
ing. His marvellous memory, and all his mental and 
spiritual faculties, were of the highest order, and he 
was an industrious and attentive reader. Among the 
early Fathers of the Church St. Augustine seems to 
have been one of his principal favorites. Among the 
German reformers of a later day, Schwenkfeld was 
pre-eminently so. 



GENEALOGICAL RECORD. 29 

Chistopher Schultz, as already indicated, was gifted 
with a good judgment, with wisdom to discern right 
and fortitude to defend and execute it; owing to this 
he was frequently called upon to settle differences. 
He had a mild but convincing way of telling the rep- 
robate, "Thou art the man." In his ministrations 
and writings he endeavored to give the true spiritual 
sense of the Scriptures ; his chief aim and end being 
the glorification of God and the well-being of man. 
He could work on his farm, or at the loom, exercise 
deeds of kindness, courtesy, and condescension, with- 
out compromising his never failing dignity. His life 
motto was "Soli Deo Gloria." (To God alone the 
honor.) We have no evidence that this motto ever 
appeared on the walls of his study, but his works 
prove that they w T ere inscribed in his heart. Among 
the early records of Berks County, we find the last 
will and testament of Christopher Schultz; it is a 
model of its kind, is dated the 24th day of Oc- 
tober, A.D. 1788, and is witnessed by his friends, 
Abraham Schultz, Gregory Schultz, and George 
Kriebel; in it the testator, among other thiugs, disposes 
of about 800 acres of land in Berks, Montgomery, and 
Northumberland counties, Pa., embracing two of the 
fiuest farms in Eastern Berks ; one of them, late that 
of his brother Melchior, however, had been bought by 
the testator for and in the name of his son Andrew. 
His family, all of whom survived him, consisted of his 
wife Bosina, a daughter of Baltzer Yeakel, and four 
children, Begina, Andrew, David, and Susanna. 
It might be asked : How is it that the once fatherless, 
motherless shepherd and weaver-boy of Berthelsdorf 
had so much property at his disposal? See Matt. 
19 : 29.

Father Schultz died on the 9th of May, 1789, aged 71 

years, 1 month, 13 days ; the immediate cause of his 

death was apoplexy, although he had been indisposed 

some time previous to the attack. 

His last words, barely audible to the family, were : 

" A little while and ye shall not see me, and again a 

little while and ye shall see me, because I go to the 

Father." 

The Rev. Chistopher Hoffman, of Skippack, preached 

the funeral sermon, taking for his text the words of 

St. Paul, 2 Timothy 4 : 7-8 : I have fought a good 

fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the 

faith, etc. 

This sermon, fully written out and remaining in the 

family, has lost nothing of interest on account of its 

great age.

Abraham Schultz, the eldest son of George Schultz, 
was born in Upper Hanover, March 23, 1747. In his 
youth, after some brief school instruction, he became, 
not only a great lover of books and literature, but an 
industrious reader, and being gifted with a comprehen- 
sive mind and retentive memory, he soon acquired a 
good deal of general knowledge, of which he made good 
use through life. He was a member of the religious 
society of Schwenkfelders, and served them in the ca- 
pacity of trustee, school-inspector, teacher, and cate- 
chist, and the community in which he lived as scriv- 
ener and counsellor, and in the year 1796 was elected 
a member of the General Assembly of the State from 
Montgomery County. 

He died nearly 76 years of age. Among some papers 
left at his demise there were a few letters written by 
him that are quite interesting. One of them, dated 
June 14, 1783, to Chr. Groh, J. F. Heintze, Jeremiah 
Heydrick, and others, in Germany, giving an account 
of the then existing situation of the followers of 
Schwenkfeld in this country, and how they fared dur- 
ing the troublous times of the "Revolution;" giving 
also some of the incidents, effects, and consequences of 
the war then just closed. 

Another letter, to his young friend Dr. Christopher 
Heydrick, who was then about entering upon the prac- 
tice of his profession. The letter is full of sound sense 
and good advice, and is still carefully treasured up by 
the doctor's worthy descendants in Western Pennsyl- 
vania. 
Another, written in 1820, in reply to a request of Pas-

Charles H., born March 5, 1799. 
Chr. H. died February 9, 1856. 

Dr. Christopher Heydrick was born in Springfield 
Township, Philadelphia County (now Montgomery),. 
April 7, 1770. In his youth, after having fitted him- 
self by a thorough course of education, he studied the 
science of medicine under the instruction of the cele- 
brated Dr. Benjamin Say, of Philadelphia, and in 
1792, at the age of 22 years, graduated with high 
honors at the University of Pennsylvania. Six years 
afterwards, in 1798, he was elected a member of the 
Philadelphia Society of Medicine, and during the same 
year, and for some time afterwards, he held the posi- 
tion of Physician to the Philadelphia Hospital. In 
1815 he was elcted Eesident Member of the Cabinet 
of Sciences in Philadelphia, an honor which has been 
conferred upon few, and those the most learned and sci- 
entific men in the country. 

Having been engaged in the practice of medicine, and 
with much success, at Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia, 
and in the city of Philadelphia, from 1792 until 1819, 
he at the latter date removed to the borough of Mer- 
cer, in Mercer County, Pennsylvania. He resided in 
this place several years, and had a very successful and 
lucrative practice in his profession. But from his 
youth having a passion for agriculture, he determined 
to abandon his profession and enjoy for the remainder 
of his life his favorite pursuit, and having this object 
in view, he removed from Mercer to a farm in the val- 
ley of French Creek, Venango County, where he con- 
tinued to reside until the day of his death. During 
the last ten or twelve years of his life he was afflicted 
with blindness.

This record, so far as it relates to the genealogical rec- 
ord of the members of said religious society, and their 
descendants who adhered to their organization, was 
preserved by him in German manuscript to about the 
year 1846. In the earlier days, to about 1804, a few 
records had been kept, but about that time abandoned, 
when the Rev. Mr. Heebner, copying from those ear- 
lier ones, continued his own down to the date men- 
tioned. Without his industry and care it would have 
been impossible to compile the present work for want 
of a continuous record. Of a cheerful disposition, and 
of active and industrious habits, Mr. Heebner always 
retained the confidence of the entire community in 
which he lived.

He is the sixth in descent from Tobias Hartranft, 
whose record is given on page 2. In his seventeenth 
year he entered the preparatory department of Mar- 
shall College, Pa., where he remained two years, and 
then entered Union College, Schenectady, New York, 
where he graduated in 1853. In 1854 he was ap- 
pointed Deputy Sheriff of Montgomery County by

Having read law with James Boyd, Esq., and Hon. 



234 GENEALOGICAL RECORD. 

A. B. Longaker, he was admitted to practice law in 
1859. 

He was Colonel of the 1st Regiment Montgomery 
County Militia when President Lincoln issued his call 
for 75,000 men for the defence of the Government. 
Colonel Hartranft at once tendered the services of his 
regiment and was accepted ; this was the 4th Penn- 
sylvania Regiment, enlisted for ninety days. Colonel 
Hartranft, upon the expiration of the time of service 
of the 4th Regiment, served upon the staff of General 
Franklin at the battle of Bull Run. July 27, 1861, 
he was commissioned Colonel in the three years' ser- 
vice, and in the following September organized, at 
Camp Curtin, Harrisburg, the 51st Regiment Penn- 
sylvania Volunteers. On the 18th of November the 
regiment left Camp Curtin, and was assigned to the 
corps of General Burnside, who was organizing the 
North Carolina expedition. 

It is not intended to give an extended biography of 
General Hartranft in this work, as the active part he 
took in the suppression of the Rebellion would involve 
too large a space, but merely to note the chief incidents 
of his valuable and busy life. 

He participated in the battles of Roanoke Island, New- 
bern, second Bull Run, Chantilly, South Mountain, 
An tietam, Fredericksburg, Vicksburg, Jackson, Camp- 
bell's Station, Knoxville, Wilderness, Spottsylvania, 
North Anna, Cold Harbor, Petersburg Mine, Weldon 
Railroad, Ream's Station, Poplar Spring Church, first 
and second Hatcher's Run, Fort Steadman, Peters- 
burg, and Richmond. For his gallantry at Spottsylva- 
nia Court-house he was commissioned a Brigadier Gen- 
eral, dating from May 12, 1864. For meritorious ser- 
vices he was breveted Major-General March 25, 1865. 



GENEALOGICAL RECORD. 235 

This ended the military career of General Hartranft. 
In August, 1865, he was nominated Auditor-General, 
and elected in October of that year by 23,000 major- 
ity ; in the fall of 1868 he was again elected to the 
same office by a handsome majority. 
Upon the expiration of the second term of Governor 
Geary's administration, General Hartranft was placed 
in nomination for Governor of Pennsylvania by the 
Republican party, and after one of the most bitter 
political contests known in the history of this State, 
General Hartranft was elected by a triumphant ma- 
jority of 35,000. On the 26th of May, 1875, Gover- 
nor Hartranft was again nominated for the office of 
Chief Magistrate of his native State. This time he 
was unanimously placed in nomination by the Repub- 
lican party, the only instance in which a Governor had 
no opposition in convention for a second term in the 
history of Pennsylvania. This time he was elected 
by a majority of over 12,000. Immediately upon his 
retirement from the Governorship of Pennsylvania 
President Hayes appointed him Postmaster of the city 
of Philadelphia, which position he now holds. 
Governor Hartranft at present holds the position of 
Commanding General of the National Guard of Penn- 
sylvania, by appointment of Governor Hoyt. Presi- 
dent Johnson appointed him Colonel of the 34th Reg- 
iment of the U. S. Army, dating from the 28th of 
July, 1866, but as he intended to retire to civil life 
he declined the appointment by suitable acknowledg- 
ment. 

In the Convention of the Republican party, held at 
Cincinnati, in the spring of 1876, for the purpose of 
nominating a candidate for President of the United 
States, Governor Hartranft's name was presented by

his friends, but after several ballotings Governor 
Hayes, of Ohio, was placed in nomination. 
Whatever position General Hartranft was called upon 
to fill, he always discharged its duties with distin- 
guished ability, whether on the field of battle or as the 
Executive of the State of Pennsylvania. His mod- 
esty, firmness, and integrity won for him the confi- 
dence of all who had any business to transact with 
him.
